Visual Aspect detail (1 Viewer)

[chris33f]

Hi,
Xface is a very nice skin that I just installed.
There is a detail when you list CDs or DVDs as boxes. The cover image is not deformed to fit the box angle view.
is there an option for this, or is this something planned to do with a shader or other technique ?
Thanks

The cover box is only a 2D overlay and not really angled (an optical illusion). The borders of the box opening are made in such a way as to cover the square corners of the cover art. Not all skins use this technique. There might be some actual 3D tricks in MediaPortal II's skin engine, if I've read correctly, but not in MediaPortal I.

hope that helps clear things up.
